Solve 8x + 10 = 82

The solution of 8x + 10 = 82 is x = 9.

The lines y = 8x + 10 and y = 82 meet at x = 9468101214406080100120140x = 9y = 8x + 10y = 82
The lines y = 8x + 10 and y = 82 meet at x = 9. The solution of the equation is the x-coordinate of the point where the two sides are equal.

How to work it out

  1. 1

    The goal is to get x alone. Undo the operations in the opposite order: first the addition, then the multiplication.

    8x+10=828x + 10 = 82
  2. 2

    Subtract 10 from both sides:

    8x+10−10=82−10 ⇒ 8x=728x + 10 - 10 = 82 - 10 \ \Rightarrow\ 8x = 72
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 8:

    8x8=728 ⇒ x=9\frac{8x}{8} = \frac{72}{8} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 9
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 9 back into the equation.
